They've have a terrific reputation for building quality products at a price that you can afford especially when it comes to ATV's. Here are 4 Yamaha ATV vintage picks.

And there reputation is second to none when it comes to producing high performance ATVs. There all terrain vehicle line up is superb and considered by many to be the best out of all the manufacturers. But let's step back in time just a little bit and have a look at the best vintage sellers ever.

1. Banshee
This is the ultimate performer when it comes to all terrain vehicles. The 347 cc liquid cooled engine with twin 26mm Mikuni carburetors makes this a real performer and the manual clutch, six speed transmission, and knobby tires make it a hard one to turn down.

This ATV handles the toughest terrain you can find and it's up for any challenge you can throw its way. It had an optimized braking system with dual front disc brakes and its light weight frame build at under 400 pounds made this a real treat.

2. Blaster
This low price ATV is a lot of fun and its so durable. It's well known for its responsive handling and agility and the 195cc air cooled engine with six speed transmission is a real hit. Here you'll find a comfortable ride and a lot of power so whether you plan to put this ATV to work or take it into the outdoors for some outdoor fun hunting, fishing, or camping it won't let you down. This was a machine you couldn't go wrong with.

3. Breeze
In 1997 Yamaha offered a full line of Breeze all terrain vehicles. This 124cc four stroke engine was the smallest four Yamaha produced so it made it a great choice for those teens 16 to 18. It had an automatic transmission and was a great machine to get to know the basics about an ATV. It has a fully adjustable throttle limiter and an extremely quiet USFS arrestor. Just as its name suggests riding this ones a real breeze.

4. Badger
This was the ultimate introduction of the era for riders over the age of 12 with an adult supervising. The 79cc four stroke engine was a great place to start and it gave the young ones enough power to have some fun and to learn to be a responsible operator.

The Badger's bigger siblings would be happy to accommodate the older and more experienced rider but for the beginner just new to ATVing this is a great choice.

It has light steering, excellent front and rear suspension, low horsepower, and low maintenance.

Today Yamaha offers even more choices and impressive choices I might add. Each year Yamaha runs with technology offering a new and improved product that's sure to impress you. That's why they remain an industry leader.

It's fun to look back in time and see where we've been and then to dream about where we might be going. These 4 Yamaha ATV vintage picks were some of the best Yamaha ever produced. Ever wonder what the future brings?
